Unless you’ve had your head shoved under a rock today, then you’ve seen that Nokia has announced its upcoming Booklet 3G netbook. And while nothing has really changed since that original post of ours, we can’t help but pass up giving you some live images of the little device, and let you get a refresher on the hardware. Don’t worry though, next week SlashGear will be at the Nokia World event, where we’ll be bringing you all the important details regarding Nokia’s new toy.

Nokia have announced their own netbook, the Nokia Booklet 3G, promising up to 12 hours battery life together with integrated WiFi, 3G HSPA and GPS.  The 1.25kg netbook has an aluminum chassis and measures around 2cm thick; it uses an unspecified Intel Atom processor, has an HDMI output for HD video playback and a 10.1-inch glass HD-ready display.

An image – together with specifications – of HTC’s upcoming budget Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone has leaked.  The HTC Mega appears to be part of HTC’s push for mid-range devices, with a 2.8-inch touchscreen running at just QVGA resolution and a 3.2-megapixel camera with fixed-focus.

It’s certainly not the first we’ve heard of the T-Mobile Pulse – aka the Huawei 8220 – but today’s spilling of information is perhaps the most comprehensive spec sheet and all-round renders we’ve seen so far.  The Android OS 1.5 handset has shown up for preorder on a Dutch website, locked to T-Mobile but sold without a contract for €257 ($368) if you’re willing to take your chances with third-party unlock merchants.

Modu’s modular-jacket cellphone may already be on sale in Israel, but don’t expect to see it land in the US or the UK any time soon; according to the company, “the device just isn’t good enough for demanding Brits and Americans who like to surf the internet and stay connected.”  CEO Dov Moran followed up that slice of honesty (or was it a snub against the other locations the first-gen Modu will see a release in?) with the news that the Modu 2 will arrive in 2010 offering both a touchscreen and a full QWERTY jacket.

The HTC Leo has made another appearance, this time courtesy of ai.rs, and the spec sheet for this Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone continues to grow in detail.  The 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen handset runs at WVGA resolution and packs Qualcomm’s MSM8250 Snapdragon 1GHz chipset, together with a 5-megapixel autofocus camera and dual-LED flash.

It’s not the first video we’ve seen of Samsung’s Omnia II GT-i8000 and it’s very unlikely to be the last, but news that the dualband 850/1900MHz 3G HSDPA/HSUPA version of the AMOLED touchscreen smartphone has cleared the FCC is definitely worth celebrating with some moving pictures.  Beyond the AT&T and Rogers Canada friendly wireless bands there’s little here that we didn’t know already, but don’t let that disappoint you: the Omnia II is still a very tempting smartphone.

Details of Acer’s new mainstream business notebooks have emerged, the Acer Travelmate Timeline series.  As the name suggests, the range is based on the existing 13.3-inch, 14-inch and 15.6-inch Aspire 3810T, 4810T and 5810T Timeline models, complete with their CULV low-voltage processors.  However the new Travelmates have magnesium alloy chassis for improved durability, together with dedicated anti-shock software and biometric security.
